Cloning and expression of a Kv1.2 class delayed rectifier K+ channel from canine colonic smooth muscle.
A cDNA (CSMK1) encoding a delayed rectifier K+ channel of the Kv1.2 class was cloned from canine colonic circular smooth muscle and expressed in Xenopus oocytes. These channels appear to be uniquely expressed in gastrointestinal muscles and may participate in the electrical slow wave activity. Functional expression of CSMK1 in Xenopus oocytes demonstrated a K+ current that activated in a voltag...
متن کاملCardiac Rapidly Activating Delayed Rectifier K' Channel
Class III antiarrhythmic drugs show promise as effective treatments for the suppression of potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmias. Dofetilide (UK-68,798), is a potent class III antiarrhythmic agent that is presently under clinical investigation. The objective of this study was to determine whether [3H]dofetilide could be used as a specific radioligand for the rapidly activating delayed rectifie...
متن کاملConversion of a Delayed Rectifier K+ Channel to a Voltage-Gated Inward Rectifier K+ Channel by Three Amino Acid Substitutions
Single, double, and triple mutations progressively shift Shaker activation to more hyperpolarized potentials, resulting in an increase in the fraction of inactivated channels at negative resting voltages. The most negatively shifted mutation, the triple mutant, behaves like an inward rectifier. What is usually considered activation of an inward rectifier is, for the triple mutant, recovery from...
متن کاملExistence of a delayed rectifier K+ current in the membrane of human embryonic stem cel
Introduction: Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are pluripotent cells that can proliferate and differentiate to many cell types. Their electrophysiological properties have not yet been chracterzed. In this study, the passive properties (such as resting membrane potential, input resistance and capacitance) and the contribution of delayed rectifier K+ channel currents to the membrane conducta...
متن کاملA mouse brain homolog of the Drosophila Shab K+ channel with conserved delayed-rectifier properties.
We have cloned and expressed a mouse brain K+ channel that is the homolog of the Drosophila Shab K+ channel. Mouse and Drosophila Shab K+ channels (mShab and fShab, respectively) represent an instance of K+ channels and structurally related species that are both functionally and structurally conserved; most kinetic, voltage-sensitive, and pharmacological properties are similar for the 2 channel...
